Many built without mortar - just well fit.The one architectural feature to have survived the most through millennia of earthquakes? The Roman arch

As to going under desks, In my work environment, since the mid 90's, And I was at work for the 2001 quake near Olympia, is that he overhead objects like fluorescent light fixtures, and ceiling tiles, are a great threat. Those and stuffed teddy bears. No object over 8oz may be placed above 5 feet over the floor without being secured. Set a pop on your shelf ... secure that sucker. One guy had a teddy bear the safety committee weighed and force him to re-locate. Another guy had a bowling pin, which he super-glued in place. There are a$$holes everywhere. My shelf has magically been adjusted to 58 in ;-). Magic.
